)my actual full name is richard marley.(no middle name by the way,my parents obviously werent that fussed about me
)a gatwick b.a.a security twat once swiped/scanned my work i.d which reads r marley.
he asked me "is your first name robert?" with a grin on his face,but much to his dissapointment i said with even more smugness; "nah its richard".
he said "lucky its not robert ay?,as bob is short for robert."
i replied sarcastically "really?funnily enough ive heard the bob joke since i was about twelve years old".
its funny how these b.a.a dicks can get away with trying to mock others,yet if you get too clever or witty back,they threaten to take your i.d.and put you out of a job in a second.
heartless,cowardly,jobsworths.
he then asked if i was in the scrooge the ghost of christmas past movie.i just said "nope".
i think he was after another reaction.
bloody robo-cocks!
now and again if we have black colleagues join dixons i'll try and convince them i have a related family history connection to bob marley,(as he was half white/mixed race)bulshitting them with "historic facts"
its quite a laugh as some believe it and others wont have any of it.
also the other day at underworld i was on thier collection list as r.mOrley and the dick at the counter almost didnt let me claim my tickets even though i had a reference number and card i paid with,both matching the data next to my incorrectly spelt name.after him getting a 2nd person involved(really no need!)and making me wait in suspense it was finally given the ok and given my £33 worth of tickets.what nobs!
i was obviously misheard when telephone ordering them.easily done,i tried to explain this simple fact but they still debated it at the collection booth the fools.
morley is shitter than marley and i hate that common mistake.
anyone got any interesting stories/facts about thier names?
